Hello everybody,  
I have installed a personal instance of bitwarden\_rs in a docker on a Synology NAS.  
This NAS sometimes reboots for various reasons, when it reboots docker is relaunch automatically and the bitwarden\_rs container also…  
but sometimes i’ve the feeling that the startup of the bitwarden container doesn’t goes well (I have not identified clearly what is happening but I can’t synchronise my passwords on my phone or on my PC)

My question is :  
Is there a way to monitor the health of the container ? (maybe an integration with some tools like netdata) How to konw if is it up ? if is it functionnal ? and maybe force a reboot of the container…  
Does somebody has already done this and how ?  
May thanks

There already is a default health check integrated which is checked by docker, so check docker should be enough.

It does this btw by checking /alive
